Stefan, Hans replied me back and he suggested me to use strace. Hopefully, this issue can be resolved.
Additionally, we encountered a tough issue right now. When we ran a 64-bit Windows 7 VM overnight, the kvm process was killed for some reasons. Here is the qemu version I copied from the screen "QEMU emulator version 1.0 (qemu-kvm-devel), Copyright (c) 2003-2008 Fabrice Bellard" The Qemu source is from Hans. Any suggestion to attack this issue? -----Original Message----- From: Stefan Hajnoczi [mailto:stefa...@gmail.com] Sent: Friday, May 25, 2012 4:13 PM To: Charles.Tsai-蔡清海-研究發展部 Cc: qemu-devel@nongnu.org; Jonah.Wu-吳君勉-研究發展部; Hans de Goede Subject: Re: Tracing message for mu On Fri, May 25, 2012 at 3:42 AM, Charles.Tsai-蔡清海-研究發展部 <charles.t...@cloudena.com> wrote: > I had a problem to launch the VM using the script that contains the Qemu > options.

Please > give me a suggestion so that I can probe this issue here. Please provide details when asking for help: 1. The full QEMU command-line used to launch the guest. 2. The exact error message and where it was printed (inside the guest or by QEMU itself). 3. Which version of QEMU or which git commit you are testing. Since you mentioned Hans and Freedesktop I guess this has something to do with SPICE and QXL. QEMU tracing does not provide much debug info on startup - it's more useful once the guest is running and you need to understand the I/O requests and other operations that are going on. There is a quickstart guide in docs/tracing.txt if you want to try it. Stefan
